RED PIC OF THE DAY: STEAMPUNK COUTURE

Steampunk Couture is a design label created by British-born, California-living designer,
Kate Lambert… better known as Kato. She creates hand-crafted clothing focusing on
Neo-Victorian, Sci-Fi and Shabby Chic fashion.

As a model and style innovator, Kato has carved herself a niche with her embodiment of the 1800′s rebellious, strong, yet feminine woman. This little lady has got some serious style and a wicked eye for the unique and obscure. She’s making a name for herself in the Steampunk world, so keep your eyes peeled!

GREEN COUCH SESSIONS

At one time or another, there have been many vehicles used to spread awareness of music and community: Radio, MTV, the Magic School Bus… etc. One of the latest of those is Green Couch Sessions. A local operation that promotes Vancouver music through a series of experimental videos that showcase the artist(s) and their environment. What makes them special is not just their choice of furniture but also their method of making each video unlike the rest. This consists of artists simply playing their music on the Green Couch in a new environment to create a sound unique the session; thus showcasing the talent and the city at the same time. If that weren’t enough, they also host monthly parties featuring various artists for a night of fun and collaboration. Not bad folks… Keep up the good work!

Here’s a video session with the beautiful and talented… Carly Rae Jepsen. Enjoy!

IT’S A TOUGH WORLD FOR FAT MONSTERS

The art of Francesca Crescentini has stolen our hearts with a roster of cuddly ghosts, zombie geishas and pirate bunnies created in a style that we can only describe as the love child of Tim Burton and Pikachu.

The Surreal Life (in the eyes of Ryohei Hase)

In recent days, we’ve spent some time getting re-addicted to Delicious. For those of you who don’t have an account, we suggest you get one! Over the years, Delicious has become a staple for finding inspiration, solving problems, and the simple enjoyment of discovering amazing new things.

The latest of our amazing discoveries are the Surreal Illustrations of Ryohei Hase.
There are many things that make this artist great (to say the least) but it’s his use of melancholy characters put in to a state of intense chaos that really got us. Feelings of depression, desperation, panic, vulnerability, grace and strength erupt from his images and we don’t mind one little bit… Bring it on Ryohei Hase!

For full-sized appreciation of this visionary artist, we recommend you visit his profile on DeviantART. For more information, visit Ryohei Hase’s Official Website.

DEAD KITTIE

Akshi The Albino Snake Charmer

Akshi The Albino Snake Charmer

The fantastically deceased dollies of Megan Majewski. Need we say more?
 … Ok maybe a little bit of extra information would be helpful.

 Megz is a Vancouver artist who’s art we’ve seen mature and refine over the last few years.
While her older work embodies the sweet and disturbing nature of all her paintings, the
more recent pieces have come to take on a life of their own. These exceptional little darlings
are a blending of dark humor and sexuality for the innocently evil.

Unfortunately her most recent show was on Oct. 6th but if you are in Venice, CA next month
be sure to check her out at The C.A.V.E. Gallery (1108 Abott Kinney Blvd) on November 11th.
